Another SFH I am in the middle of refi...purchased for 57k, put 20k into it, appraised for 120k, rented for $1,250, 8.25% rate, breaks even and pulling 13k out.

I live in Chicago and invest in multifamily on the east coast and in the midwest.

I am agnostic on geography other than looking to stay East of the Mississippi and out high tax/high regulation states.

The city lies along Tualatin Valley Highway between Forest Grove to the West and Hillsboro to the East.

Further east, nearer Boston, not so much.
